Key to Kratom Vein Colors

• Red vein kratom: made from the most mature leaves, with reddish central veins. Usually chosen for the evening.
• Green vein kratom: harvested at a middle stage, between white and red. A versatile, middle-of-the-spectrum choice.
• White vein kratom: harvested young, with pale veins and a lighter powder. Usually chosen for daytime.
• Yellow and gold kratom: usually made with a special drying process or a blend of vein colors.

How to Use This Kratom Strain Chart

• New to kratom? Start with one regular leaf strain, such as Green Bali or Red Bali, rather than an extract.
• Prefer a daytime strain? Look at white and green vein strains.
• Prefer an evening strain? Look at red vein strains.
• Want something different? Try a yellow or gold strain.
• Want variety in one bag? Try Trainwreck kratom, our blend of all three vein colors.

Effects vary from person to person, and scientific research on kratom is still limited. Treat the chart as a guide to how strains differ, not a promise of how they will affect you. Found a strain you like? Many of our powders are also available by the kilo in our kratom kilo sale.

What Is Kratom?

Kratom (Mitragyna speciosa) is a tropical evergreen tree in the coffee family, native to Thailand, Malaysia and Indonesia. Its leaves have been part of daily life in Southeast Asia for generations, traditionally chewed or brewed into tea. The leaves contain natural alkaloids, with mitragynine the most abundant, and more than 40 others in smaller amounts.

Today kratom is sold as powder, capsules, liquid extracts and gummies. Learn more in our guide to understanding the different strains of kratom.

Using Kratom Responsibly

Kratom is not without risks. Some people experience nausea, constipation, dizziness or dry mouth, and regular use can lead to tolerance and dependence. Always follow the serving information on the label and do not exceed it. Do not mix kratom with alcohol, medications or other substances, and do not use it if you are pregnant or breastfeeding. Talk to your doctor first if you take medication or have a health condition.

For independent information on kratom's safety, see the NIH National Center for Complementary and Integrative Health. Kratom is legal federally but banned in some states and cities, so check our 2026 state-by-state kratom legal guide before ordering.

For adults 21 and over only. Kratom is not intended to diagnose, treat, cure or prevent any disease.
